nickpicker Valued Member United States 210 Posts	Posted 04/09/2014 3:38 pm I'm assuming it's MD, but I figured I should ask the experts. I can just barely make out doubling in LIBERTY, but can see it pretty good in the date and mint mark. To me, the doubling on the date appears to be rounded. But my eye isn't trained yet.

Rackster Pillar of the Community United States 4809 Posts	Posted 04/09/2014 3:42 pm May be two things going on here: MD and a weird halo effect that is common to the Zincolns. MD on Liberty and the halo effect on the date. Report this Post to the Staff
nickpicker Valued Member United States 210 Posts	Posted 04/09/2014 3:52 pm Took another pic of the mint mark. It looks like the doubling is actually etched into the coin, and not raised. Looks odd. Report this Post to the Staff

jamesd Valued Member United States 281 Posts	Posted 04/09/2014 4:50 pm It's MD or Die Deterioration because the effect is going toward the rim. Coop has a good explanation of this. Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 04/09/2014 5:10 pm That shadow doubling is a form of Die Deterioration seen on Zincolns while the mintmark is affected by split plating(very common on mintmarks). Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/09/2014 5:47 pm Biokemist6 has it right. it is Die Deterioration. Happens a lot on the zincolns possibly because of the lower profile of the devices. But common. Report this Post to the Staff
